    It’s good to see Tom enjoying his boxing again and picking up a title. I am not sure about the level of his opponent, and the commentary team is truly amateurish. It’s good to see him finally enjoying some success in the ring.

    He's had plenty of success in the ring. A crap part-timer moonlighting as a professional boxer, who could never come in in-shape, still got on television regularly and stunk the place out every time. A very lucky bloke, I'd say.

    He couldn't punch snow of a rope. Very weak for a man of his size.

    Thought he retired? There wasn't quite Dave Allen retirement level song and dance made, but I definitely remember a long IFL interview discussing it.

    Must be the Mandela effect. I'm also from the universe where Tom Little retired. I remember the speech by the Prime Minister, the minute's silence before all football matches, Hearn's tears, Warren's breakdown, Dereck Chisora taking his clothes off and climbing the gates at Buckhingham Palace. Now apparently he's still boxing. Wtf is happening?

    Well September 29th will always be remembered from here on as the day I found out about the return of the Gyppopotammus

    I remember him wanting to face Dave Allen and that interview too. All the YouTube comments licking his arse. Literally only done boxing because he’s six and a half feet tall and fat. It shows how poor the division is at that level. He’s on television and there are boxers in all of the lower weight divisions much better who will never come close to being on television.

    He does have a funny name though.

    There is that.

    yes white collar and Tom went life and death with his opponent in the later rounds too. He took a huge uppercut late on.

    I remember him being seen as a bit of a hipster’s choice HW on here.

    A but like Kamil S, was seen as someone who’s ‘better than his record suggests’. I suspect that’s because of his Traveller links in part.

    Really? That’s unbelievable. I love the hipster’s choice posts. Hunter has to be near the top of that.

    He was average at best but very charismatic. I remember the build-up to the Dubois fight. Full of one-liners. I'm not even sure he could have won the domestic title.
